About Robin
Over the years, from the basis of a sound education in English and Linguistics, with exceptional support and encouragement, I have performed many roles, all of which have been underpinned by the need to deliver a quality product or service. The goal has been to trumpet people’s skills and abilities, encourage them to make wise choices, think creatively, act independently and take up a crucial position in their community. I enjoy several sports: notably football, cricket and squash. Ipswich Town is my team. I have a good crack at cryptic crosswords; adore Earl Grey tea and my favourite holiday spot is the Gower. I have been known to play electric bass in a barn dance band and do appreciate an eclectic range of musical tastes. I have addressed large lecture hall groups, congregations and audiences; taught classes of 30+ and small seminar tutorials and then worked one to one in honing skills and sparking children and adults in pursuit of learning goals.

Don’t you love words and the art of rhetoric. Arresting an audience. Like a glorious roast dinner, all the elements arriving in harmony: tone, pace, volume, clarity, register and modulation. I trained to teach at the University of Cambridge. If you don't like the story you're living in, change the story! Storytelling, story conception, story writing - let's compose together! Exploring language purpose - to cajole, complain, describe, argue, advise, present, sell, hypothesise, negotiate, evaluate, discuss. Let's explore them all! Get in touch ... I use original materials; textual study over an hour's slot typically. The lessons can be adapted for differing abilities and ages. They offer challenge with a robust attention to results, eye for detail, focus on active to passive but encouraging the student to explore, question and put the language to work.

I've know Robin for over 30 years as a close personal friend. Besides having decades of teaching experience in a variety of settings and with different age groups, he also has exceptional personal skills creating a warm and encouraging environment in which to learn.
Brilliant tutor, with an incredible knowledge of literature, from plays, through to poetry, contemporary journalistic writing and novels. Always had a great strategy and structure to approach different types of writing and analysis. Super approachable. Always an enjoyable lesson!
I worked as a colleague with Robin at The King's School, Witney, UK, for many years. He taught English and drama to many children, including my own! He has a deep love for language, both written and spoken, and through his extrovert, inclusive style had no difficulty in engaging secondary students aged 11 to 16. He is a gifted drama teacher with an understanding of all the elements involved in staging school productions. He is fun to be with and has a genuine concern for the welfare of others. He will be an asset to your team.
Having known Robin for 30 years I've seen him inspire and equip young people in communication skills in a whole range of different contexts. He's an inspiring and creative communicator and I highly recommend him.
Robin helped tutor me in English, Drama and Essay practice. He is a very experienced teacher who brings flair and creativity to lessons and helped me understand both the texts but also navigate mark schemes to get me the grades I wanted.
Robin has worked as a brilliant English teacher in the state and public school systems for many years. His friendly, fun loving and approachable nature and his love for the English language, makes him a great tutor.
I highly recommend Robin, having lead a youth group together past and present. He is a very relational person who is passionate about helping others learn and loves his subject!
He has excellent knowledge of the English language. He is passionate about helping other people learn. He has lots of infectious enthusiasm. He is a very experienced English GCSE and A Level examiner.
